News and Events

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is the new way of providing individualised support for eligible people with permanent and significant disability, and will roll out across Victoria from June 2016.

What is ACD Connect?

ACD Connect is a FREE Peer Support Network for families seeking to manage their own supports and make the most of the NDIS to go beyond traditional disability pathways.

Monthly peer meetings will provide opportunities for you to meet other families and share experiences.

To celebrate Social Inclusion Week and International Day of People with a Disability, come along to Come and Try day! You will be able to try out a range of activities such as: 

The Australian Government signed agreements with the NSW and Victorian governments for the full roll out of the NDIS across the two states.

Existing service users and new participants will enter the scheme progressively. People currently receiving support through the Victorian Government will move to the NDIS at different times depending on where they live and the type of support they receive.

As part of social inclusion week Interchange Gippsland Young Adult Service would like to invite all to attend an afternoon of gaming. Come try – PC, Xbox, board games and more!
